One Year Conditional Guarantee

BUYER's Responsibilities:

BUYER must have the puppy examined by a licensed veterinarian within 10 days of delivery. If there is a health concern, the BUYER must notify SELLER immediately by phone or text message. Please note that minor symptoms such as runny nose or diarrhea may be brought on by stress and change of food and/or water. It will take up to two weeks for the puppy to adjust to these changes. If symptoms of these types continue after two weeks and the BUYER wishes to pursue a remedy covered by the SELLER's Guarantee, the BUYER must have the puppy re-examined by a second licensed veterinarian from a different veterinary clinic. This must be done to confirm the cause of the puppy's illness (see SELLER's Guarantee below).

BUYER agrees to avoid exposing the puppy to other people's pets or public "doggie areas" until the puppy has acquired an immunity to dog diseases and infections by following the recommended series of vaccinations from your veterinarian. The BUYER shall be aware of the increased risk of infection and exposure to parasites at dog kennels and highly used "doggie areas" and shall take necessary precautions such as the use of kennel cough vaccines before exposing the puppy to higher risk environments, and the use of de-worming treatments after exposing the puppy to higher risk environments as recommended by a licensed veterinarian.

BUYER must provide responsible care and personal or professional training of your puppy. This may require a lot of time and effort for the first year of the puppy's life. It also requires your commitment to insure the safety, health, and welfare of your puppy.

BUYER must have either a fenced yard or play area for the puppy, or agree to take the puppy outside on a leash at regular daily intervals according to your puppy's needs.

BUYER must provide the puppy with a high quality dog food and fresh water supply on a daily basis. It is highly recommended for the BUYER to avoid feeding your puppy "human" table food or over feeding your puppy.

This includes but is not limited to: veterinary treatments, diagnosis, surgeries, medications, necessary kenneling, overnight care, or postmortem handling/services.

Supplemental Terms & Conditions:

The BUYER promises not to keep the puppy in a crate or cage for more than 3 to 4 hours at a time except during nighttime hours. In a family where both adults work and the children attend school probably means that the puppy will be spending long periods of time during the day in a crate or closed-in quarters. This could have adverse affects on the the puppy's health and well being.

The SELLER promises to register the microchip number affixed to page 1 of this agreement (shown beneath the barcode) on-line at AKC Reunite within 30 days after having delivered the puppy to the BUYER. Thereafter, the BUYER has the ultimate responsibility of updating the ownership records and contact information.

The BUYER promises to not allow the puppy to jump off of house furniture such as beds, sofas, or chairs, up or down steps and stairways, off porches, or any surface that is higher than the length of the puppy's legs until the puppy is over 18 months old. The puppy should be carried up and down stairs until at least 6 months old. Failure to do this can result in damage to the skeletal frame and joints of the puppy prior to being fully developed or able to endure such activity.

The BUYER promises to not take the puppy on long, exhaustive walks that are more than five minutes long continuous, (without a 30 minute rest minimum between walks) before the age of 6 months old, and not more than ten minutes long continuous, before the age of 18 months old. Failure to do this can result in damage to the skeletal frame and joints of the puppy prior to being fully developed or able to endure such activity.

The BUYER promises to not allow the puppy to be around aggressive dogs that could inflict wounds or injuries to the puppy. This includes but is not limited to the following breeds which are widely known to be aggressive and potentially hurtful: Pit Bull, German Shepherd, Rottweiler, Alaskan Malamute, Huskies, Doberman Pinscher, Chow Chow, Bullmastiff, Boxer, Bull Terrier, Jack Russell Terrior, Bulldog, Great Dane, Saint Bernard, Basenji, Shar-Pei, or any other breed of dog that has been observed to attack other dogs or humans at any time. Please, keep in mind that some dogs may be very friendly to humans and other mature adult dogs, but may act aggressively towards a young and immature puppy that has not fully learned social etiquette with other adult dogs. Here are three websites that provide additional information on aggressive dog breeds: I Love Dogs, Aggressive Dog Breeds,Top 20 Most Aggressive Small Dog Breeds.

The BUYER agrees to de-worm or have the puppy de-wormed on a regular basis as recommended by a licensed Veterinarian, and also given preventative treatments for heartworms on a monthly basis throughout the life of the dog. Failure to do so can result in intestinal or other internal parasites that can affect the health of, or even cause the death of your puppy.

The BUYER agrees to inspect or have the puppy inspected on a regular basis for external parasites, and agrees to treat or have the puppy treated for exposure to fleas, ticks, mites or other external parasites that are found on the puppy or known to exist in any indoor or outdoor areas where the puppy is allowed to play or take potty breaks.

In addition, the BUYER promises during the first four months of age to minimize or avoid the puppy's exposure to pet groomers, doggie parks, kennels,other pet friendly environments frequented by other dogs and cats, and all other animals while at Veterinary clinics. All dogs and cats are carriers of various viruses or other dangerous organisms even though their own immune system protects them from becoming infected with a disease. Your puppy needs and depends on you to protect it from these viruses and life threatening organisms for the first four months of its life while its system is developing its own immunities.

The BUYER agrees to make all members of the family and others outside the family (such as pet kenneling services or anyone who takes care of the puppy) aware of these Terms and Conditions so that the health of the puppy will be maintained while its body, muscles, internal organs, skeletal frame, and immune system are still developing.

The SELLER has the right to delay the delivery date of the puppy by up to two weeks in rare circumstances when recommended by the Veterinarian after the puppy's first visit to the Vet clinic. This is infrequent but sometimes necessary to administer follow-up treatments recommended by the Veterinarian.

The SELLER has the right to cancel the sale of any puppy at any time prior to the delivery date if the SELLER feels it is in the best interest of the puppy's health and well being. In the rare event that a sale is canceled by the SELLER, 100% of all monies paid by the BUYER shall be refunded.

Prior to delivery, the SELLER reserves the right to include the puppy in: (1) public showings of the puppy, (2) various promotions, and (3) advertising the puppy for the purpose of promoting Emery-n-Denise's Golden PuppiesTM, and for promoting other entities and events who have been granted our permission for advertisement. The SELLER's rights to the puppy for public showings will terminate after the puppy is delivered to the BUYER. However, any of the puppy's photos and videos that are taken prior to delivery of the puppy may be used indefinitely by Emery-n-Denise's Golden PuppiesTM and other entities who have been granted our permission for the purpose of (but not limited to): (1) advertisement on the Golden PuppiesTM website and various social media, and for, (2) various advertisements or promotions of other business entities, events, products, or media.

If the BUYER cancels less than 72 hours after picking a specific puppy, the refund will be 100% of all monies paid, as long as the puppy is not being shipped by airlines within 48 hours from the cancellation. In such a case, the airline shipping cost will not be refunded. All cancellation requests must be made by talking to us live over the phone and confirmed to us by text message or email.

If within a 1 year period from puppy's date of birth, the BUYER receives confirmation from licensed veterinary professionals that the puppy has a debilitating, or life-threatening, congenital defect as described on page 2 of the Purchase Agreement and desires to pursue a remedy covered by the one-year health guarantee, then the following limitations apply: (1) the guaranteed refund shall be limited to the original purchase price, sales tax (if applicable), and delivery fee paid by the BUYER; (2) all other expenses incurred by the BUYER such as but not limited to those from veterinary treatments, diagnosis, surgeries, medications, necessary kenneling, overnight care, or postmortem handling/services shall be the sole responsibility of the BUYER; (3) the SELLER shall not be liable for any expenses incurred by the BUYER as a result of a defective puppy.
